Cuomo also identified the company of the limo as Prestige Limousine. According to Reuters, the company's owner, Shahed Hussain, has the same name and address as a former FBI informant with ties to Newburgh.

Hussain was arrested in 2002 for allegedly helping immigrants cheat on driver's tests. Years later, he acted as a radical militant and helped the FBI convict four men who plotted to bomb synagogues and shoot down planes in Newburgh, Reuters reports.

According to the Associated Press, Hussain is credited with helping the FBI stop an elaborate sting at a mosque in Newburgh in 2009.
